Others were taken prisoners—most wilingly— | in successful Ttalian drives. The Ital- jans repeatedly found Czecho-Slovak machine gunners in the mountains at tached to their weapons by stout chains forged upon ankle bracelets. Victims of such a practice, of course, iehed ready material for the Bo- an division.
